Character Strengths: A Study of Argentinean Soldiers
2012
The primary objective of this research was to study the differences in positive traits between military and civilian college students and between cadets in their first and final years at a military academy. Second, the research aimed to study the relations between positive traits and the academic and military performance of cadets in their first and final years, according to the classification of positive traits by Peterson and Seligman (2004). To accomplish these objectives, a sample of university students from a military educational institution and a sample of civilian university students were studied. The instruments used were a 24-item self-report measure of positive traits, a measure o…
Presence of genital spines in a male Corynosoma cetaceum Johnston and Best, 1942 (Acanthocephala).
2002
We collected 83 females and 80 males of Corynosoma cetaceum from 2 common dolphins, Delphinus delphis, collected in northern Patagonia (Argentina). Worms were most similar to specimens collected in other South American localities. However, 1 male had 2 spines adjacent to the genital pore and isolated from the rest of body spines. This finding confirms the recent reassignment of C. cetaceum to Corynosoma. Absence of genital spines is suggested to be avoided as the sole criterion to exclude specimens from Corynosoma or Andracantha.
Population dynamics of Antarctophthirus microchir (Anoplura: Echinophthiriidae) in pups from South American sea lion, Otaria flavescens, in Northern …
2009
We analysed population dynamics of the louse Antarctophthirus microchir in pups of the South American sea lion, Otaria flavescens, at the Punta León rookery (Argentina) over a period of 2 years. A total of 136 pups were aged and marked at the beginning of the lactation period ashore, then sampled for lice at different times within 30 days. Sampling was restricted to the chest and belly, two sites where lice were especially abundant. This concentration on ventral areas might protect lice from thermal stress in the austral summer. Infestation patterns in pups ≤3 days old suggested that the potential for transmission increased from first nymphs to adults. Population trends of each instar with …
Screening for bipolar disorders in Spanish-speaking populations: sensitivity and specificity of the Bipolar Spectrum Diagnostic Scale-Spanish Version.
2010
Background: Bipolar disorder is commonly misdiagnosed, perhaps more so in Latin American and Spanish-speaking populations than in the United States. The Bipolar Spectrum Diagnostic Scale (BSDS) is a 19-item screening instrument designed to assist in screening for all types of bipolar disorder. Methods: The authors investigated the sensitivity of a Spanish-language version of the BSDS in a cohort of 65 outpatients with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder, based on a semi-structured interview and Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition, Text Revision criteria. To determine specificity, we assessed a control group of 36 outpatients with diagnosis of unipolar major dep…
Oral health in 6-year-old schoolchildren from Berisso, Argentina : falling far short of WHO goals
2010
Objectives: Dental diseases in children have been reduced in recent decades in developed countries, although trends remain unclear in other countries. Oral healthcare in Argentina is based on demand and depends on a patient's health insurance coverage. The objective of this study was to determine the oral health situation of the population of six-year-olds in Berisso, Buenos Aires province (Argentina). Study design: A cross-sectional observational study was performed on schoolchildren from public and private schools. The following factors were evaluated: DMFT, DMFS, dft, dfs, significant caries (SiC), filled, decayed and missing teeth, and the prevalence of caries in both primary and perman…
Il complesso monastico di Santa Maria Maddalena di Corleone
2019
Le inedite fonti archivistiche indagate del monastero di Santa Maria Maddalena di Corleone hanno permesso di conoscere le committenze delle nobili e facoltose badesse per l’antico complesso benedettino, che miravano a rinnovare, arricchire e ornare gli spazi sacri rivolgendosi ad artisti di chiara fama. Da Tommaso de Vigilia ad Antonello Gagini, ad Antonio Vasquez e ancora a noti marmorarii, stuccatori, intagliatori e argentieri riservando la realizzazione delle opere a ricamo alle abili consorelle della stessa fondazione monastica. Del prezioso patrimonio ricordato dalle carte d’archivio si rintracciano alcune importanti opere, come i preziosi paliotti ricamati arricchiti ora con perline s…

Le Moyen Âge vu d'ailleurs : voix croisées d'Amérique latine et d'Europe
2010
Entre 2002 et 2006, le programme Le Moyen Âge vu d'ailleurs a réuni des médiévistes européens et latino-américains, au cours de quatre rencontres qui se sont déroulées à Auxerre (2002), São Paulo (2003), Madrid (2005) et Buenos Aires (2006). Dans un contexte de relative méconnaissance en Europe de ce qui se fait dans la médiévistique latino-américaine, il s'agissait alors de stimuler les échanges entre des jeunes chercheurs et des chercheurs confirmés autour de l'actualité d'une recherche multiple en train de se construire. Il s'agissait aussi de dresser le bilan des tendances historiographiques de ces dernières années dans les différents pays : Argentine, Brésil, Chili, Espagne, France et …
